Critic Reviews
- Monster Hunter Now is a decent game if you are fan of Monster Hunter series or want see something different presented by Niantic other than Pokemon GO. But compared to other games of this genre, this game may be a little disappointing
Anjishnu Bhowal · Nov 21, 2023 Reviewed on iOS, AndRead full review - Monster Hunter Now could grow into a true successor and companion to Pokémon Go, but only if Niantic listen to their audience make rapid improvements to the game. Smoothing out the difficulty curve and server issues could elevate the game, but the gameplay loop of buying Gems for Potions just to get through a day's play is quickly becoming obnoxious.
Nic Bunce · Oct 02, 2023 Reviewed on AndRead full review - All in all, Monster Hunter Now is great for beginners but lacks Monster Hunter’s beloved complexity. On one hand, there is no need to worry about hours spent grinding away, but on the other hand that is exactly what makes these games so appealing to many. Additionally, while Monster Hunter World fans are probably more likely to find this game desirable than classic players will, there is no denying that care was put into the design that pays tribute and creates something that feels authentic to Monster Hunter.
KAITLYN PETERSON · Oct 02, 2023 Reviewed on iOSRead full review - Monster Hunter Now feels more like an introductory tutorial that misses many of the marks that make the series unique. However, the graphics, soundtrack, and real-world exploration still make it fun to play.
JAMES BELL · Sep 29, 2023 Reviewed on AndRead full review - In its current state, it isn’t as deep as proper console and PC Monster Hunter games, but it does its job at giving you bite-sized hunting action on the go when you’re out and about with a lot of love put in for Monster Hunter. I hope the combat gets more depth through updates, but I’m pleased with the launch state of Monster Hunter Now and will be playing it regularly and checking out updates whenever new content is added.
Mikhail Madnani · Sep 18, 2023 Reviewed on iOSRead full review - If you want the full-fat Monster Hunter experience, this isn’t quite it, but it shouldn’t be either. Instead, like a Diet Coke, Monster Hunter Now is a fantastic companion to the series fans know and love, and it’s got plenty of ways to pull in newcomers as well. We hope to see more monsters and features down the line, and this live-service game is surely set to provide them, but this is a thrilling and satisfying twist on the geo-location format that every mobile gamer should try out for themselves.
Nathan Ellingsworth · Sep 13, 2023 Reviewed on iOS, AndRead full review - Un Monster Hunter que transmite las sensaciones del juego y realiza un buen uso de la realidad aumentada aunque la monetización está muy presente.
Sara Borondo · Sep 15, 2023 Reviewed on iOSRead full review - ○リアルワールドに出現するモンスターを倒し、集めた素材で武器や防具の生成・強化を行う。位置情報ゲームながらハクスラ感がしっかりある作り。 △プロローグクエストが長い。星2以上のモンスターはキャラをしっかり鍛えるか、マルチプレイでないと攻略が難しい。
納谷英嗣 · Sep 17, 2023 Reviewed on iOS, AndRead full review - Monster Hunter Now è chiaramente una grossa semplificazione della meccanica standard, ma il "trattamento Niantic" in questo caso funziona sorprendentemente bene. Laddove la serie classica richiede una grossa dose di abilità al giocatore, con le capacità in combattimento che rappresentano un elemento fondamentale del gameplay, Monster Hunter Now si affida soprattutto a una semplice meccanica basata sul tempismo corretto e input basilari, ma la vicinanza allo spirito originale è comunque notevole.
Giorgio Melani · Sep 23, 2023 Reviewed on AndRead full review - Presentando solo tredici mostri grandi e sei categorie di armi, allo stato attuale l’offerta contenutistica appare un tantino manchevole, ma conoscendo Niantic e la sua già confermata intenzione di supportare il prodotto con eventi stagionali che introdurranno nuove storie, creature, equipaggiamenti e quant’altro, Monster Hunter Now sembra viaggiare verso un futuro tutto sommato roseo.
